Chalet Balkiss is ideally located on the piste in the beautiful village of La Tania in the Three Valleys for ski-in/ski-out access to the largest ski resort in Europe. The chalet is just a short distance from the high-speed gondola lift which takes you up to above Courchevel 1850 at Col de la Loze.



The chalet is one of our very popular premium service chalets where you'll be pampered by our staff and will enjoy our upgraded catering service with an additional cheeseboard course after the evening meal, together with complimentary liquers plus canapés and aperitifs before you start. Chalet Balkiss has a cosy atmosphere inside with high living room ceilings and a log burner in the comfortable living room - there's more than enough space for all the chalet occupants to sit and relax in the evenings. Outside on the balcony, you'll find a hot-tub where you can soak away the aches and pains or you can make use of the indoor sauna facility.



Chalet Balkiss is just a short walk from the village centre of La Tania where you'll find a selection of bars and restaurants to sample for après-ski or on our staff's day off - including a Michelin star restaurant and the lively Ski Lodge pub.

The main menu is identical wherever you go so even in our lower priced chalets, you won't go short of good quality food. We want to see left-overs on our tables - or you haven't had enough to eat. We can cater for all types of special dietary requirements - including vegetarian, gluten free, lactose-free, nut-free and child menus with many products imported from England to suit the tastes of the British kids.



Apart from the traditional porridge, cereals and continental breakfast, we also include a full cooked English breakfast with bacon, sausages and baked beans (especially imported from the UK) to keep the real traditional taste .... a great way to start the day. And when you return from skiing, our afternoon tea will satisfy those hunger pangs with French bread and home-made cake in plentiful supply - not limited to one piece per person so no need to make sure you're first back from the slopes!



On the chalet couple's day off (one day in the middle of the week), a buffet breakfast will be available for you to help yourselves - the only day of the week when the Full English option is not available. The resort managers and other chalet staff will be around to make sure you have all you need and to clear up and set the table for afternoon tea - although your chalet couple are away for the day, the resort managers will be available if you need anything. In the evening, you can try out one of the local restaurants - we have the menus in the chalets and our staff can help you make your choice and book you a table.



Our menus are not complicated - they are based on normal home cooked food rather than fancy complicated recipes. This way we ensure that most options suit the tastes of most people and the staff are more than capable of producing perfect results every time.
